Summary
Hisoka Morow has always believed that living a life he truly cared about would kill him. When Illumi Zoldyck incidentally frees him from the circumstances which were preventing him from even trying to, his whole world is destroyed. He dedicates himself to destroying the world of the person responsible in turn.
Illumi has only ever wanted to live a life that his parent's approve of, and that would keep himself and them safe. Illumi isn't sure if Hisoka is a threat to his family, but he's certainly a threat to Illumi's dwindling sanity. The more the two men cross paths, the harder it becomes for either one of them to resist playing a more interesting game with the cards they've been dealt.

Summary
Draco likes his new life in Muggle London where barely anyone recognizes him. He has his friends, and his flat he never leaves, and he hasn't even thought about Potter in years. Don't believe a word Pansy says. So there's no reason for Potter to emerge out of no where and stick his nose into Draco's perfectly fine life, thank you very much.

“If I solve this case, it will be for myself and the rest of society. It won’t be for you, Kaz.”
“How honorable. Peacekeeper even behind closed doors.” somehow, when he said it, it didn’t sound like a compliment.

Summary
Back for their Eighth Year at Hogwarts, Harry and Malfoy's mutual hatred persists. Malfoy appears unwell, guarded, and as usual, up to something. Despite his own mental struggles, Harry is determined to uncover Malfoy's secrets.
Malfoy catches him spying one night. During their confrontation, Filch starts heading their way. They hide in a cramped closet together, triggering Harry's childhood memories and sending him into a panic attack.
“I’m not them,” Draco whispered, his voice losing its edge, replaced by a hollow, aching realization.

Summary
“Are you following me?” Harry asks, out of breath.
Draco peers over his sunglasses, one brow arched in judgement. His gaze takes a slow, deliberate journey down Harry, and Harry feels inexplicably warm under it.
“I was here first,” Draco says mildly. “Are you following me?” His mouth tilts up, just slightly. He's almost glowing in the sun. “Wouldn’t be the first time.”
***
Five years after the war, Draco and Harry reunite in sunny Lake Como. The views are beautiful, but Draco is devastatingly more so.
